Tension Members - Example Problems
Here are some solved example problems for tension members and their connections.
Basic Analysis
- T01: Net Areas of Plates with Staggered Holes (Traditional Solution, figures + math only)
- T01u: Net Areas of Plates with Staggered Holes Notebook solution. Mostly the same as T01, except slightly reworded and re-organized and computes with units using the Python 'pint' module.
Intermediate Analysis
- T10: Lap Splice 1u Uses units.
- T15: Angle, Bolted One Leg 1 angle or (2 angles back-to-back) bolted through one leg. Uses units.
- T20: W Bracing System
- T30: HSS Bracing System
